The Curriculum Theory Project (CTP) is a dynamic intellectual community of globally recognized scholars and graduate students who share a passion for examining the role of education in a just and democratic society.
Rooted in the interdisciplinary study of educational experience, Curriculum Theory challenges conventional thinking about knowledge — asking what counts, who decides, and why. At CTP, students explore curriculum as a lived, evolving practice shaped by culture, power, and possibility.
Join us in shaping the future of curriculum theory—locally and globally—through critical inquiry, imaginative scholarship, and bold ideas.
